The camera firmware does not limit the amount of streams that can be retrieved simultaneously. How many streams can I get simultaneously? rtsp://:/stream0/mobotix.mxgįinally, here is the URL to retrieve the only H.264 stream (no further profiles available). Client supporting these streams are, for instance, Genetec Omnicast and Milestone XProtect. MxPEG streams cannot be displayed by standard video clients as they require a specific integration. Replace the number 0 with the index of the stream (0 - 3).

Here is the URL that shall be used to retrieve stream #0. M-JPEG streams are usually supported by standard video clients like VLC as well as by the majority of 3rd party VMS’s. When the profiles are enabled and configured, it’s possible to use any RTSP video client to retrieve them It’s important to notice that RTSP streams do not allow for selecting which image sensor shall be displayed this setting depends on what is configured in the Live Stream. We strongly recommend new users to use the default settings because they are fine for the majority of the applications. Then make sure that the profiles you want to use (M-JPEG, MxPEG, H.264) are enabled and correctly configured. Moreover, if the goal is to retrieve secondary streams for each image sensor individually (left and right sensor), the Live Stream must be configured to deliver images from both sensors simultaneously. NOTE: the settings of the Live Stream (primary stream) influence the appearance of the Custom Streams (secondary streams).įor example, if the Live Stream is configured to deliver an image with resolution VGA (640x480px), it won’t be possible to retrieve a Faststream or a RTSP stream with resolution MEGA (1280x960). Important parameters that influence the display of secondary streams are the image size and the frame rate limitation. The settings for the Live Stream are available under Setup Menu > General Image settings. Therefore, it’s important to configure this stream correctly in order to retrieve custom streams as described below.

We could say that the live stream is the primary stream from which all the others are derived.
#Vlc onvif series
How can I retrieve a live stream?Īll the MOBOTIX cameras offer a multitude of possibilities but the widest range is offered by the new M圆 series which features a state of the art Onvif client. This makes them particularly flexible in case you want to give each client a different view. MOBOTIX cameras offer the possibility to retrieve multiple streams, each of them with different characteristics, at the same time.
